Just I finished ch1's analytic documentary about apocalyptic politics of United states. film introduced "Hal Lindsey" as one of the founders of "Christian Zionism" by his dreamy books, the school which directed not only the laity/people of the united states, but a huge sect of elite people like a dominant group of politicians, according to the film.
film said GWB was the result of such "school building" process. the process which aided by a great support of conservative papers and Hollywood!! then documentary linked some popular movies - not only in US but in Tehran too - like matrix (specially by focusing at the Zion in the film), Armageddon, independence day, lord of the rings, terminator and ... to this opinion directing process. the process which implicitly addicts US people to "fear" (a national conditioning) and makes them ready and apt for accepting apocalyptic policies.
I searched Google and found some good links.

I'm not aware about this guy's popularity among US people and also cant affirm ch1's documentary, but I guess, apparently there is a strong correlation between his followers opinions and the current policy of US neo-conservatism by looking at the results of this poll on his site, really surprising!
I like to know how the majority of Americans think about such beliefs and how you think about the documentary?
